It's a lot harder to get a missile to turn around.

In theory (specifically US nuclear deterrence) each leg of the nuclear triad has a different purpose (and institutional stakeholders).

Bombers flying at a target are slow enough that in theory you can convince someone they are about to make a serious mistake, while still maintaining the ability to deescalate/give the adversary an off ramp.

Bombers are visible, verifiable, and put a clock on negotiations. They are a form of communication. They signal premeditated violent intention. ICBM/SLBM are an act of war.

There is lots of literature on the practical use of nuclear weapons. All of it thankfully questionable and untested. It can get pretty wonky pretty fast. Countervailing, decapitation, C4ISR, escalation ladders, tactical vs. strategic nukes, etc.

In order for a company to get $100k/mo of revenue it needs to get 250 customers each at $400/mo. Each of these customers is likely to compare it against running their own Asterisk in a cloud for $100/mo and headaches. It is a horrible pool of clients to have because members of this pool think $1.5k/mo for what supposedly is a critical service for a company ( voice + text ) to interact with its "old school" clients is too much money and every two days they are looking at integrating with voip.ms so they can build dropbox using FTP.

I don't know a lot about batteries -- it is obvious that weight doesn't change as the charge is depleted, but is there any (even theoretical) reason to think that batteries can be made much lighter? E.g. any research into very lightweight battery technologies? Maybe supercapacitors could be lightweight?
depends on total repo size of course

I mostly agree with you, but I think HN is definitely a special case. It's not huge, sure, but it's certainly not small - I think there's a very active moderation effort and community spirit that keeps discussion much more productive than your average internet forum.
So you have a reflection off random bits of equipment followed by a trip through most of earths atmosphere? That doesn't sound easy at all - and they could choose wavelengths that won't make the trip well if at all.

I guess if you got an observation platform up closer that would help.

It looks to me like you've created a dichotomy between pre- and post-(hypothetical)-investigation discourse. From that dichotomy you then claim by fiat that no statements or allegations pre-investigation can be reasonably labeled as misinformation.

That certainly doesn't follow, and neither does the flipped implication that it wouldn't be reasonable for someone to make a good faith claim of voter fraud after such an investigation.

I'm not sure what to call this type of fallacy-- perhaps "phantom goal posts?"

Not that much really.

I use both a Pocket 2 and a Win2. They are very similar weight and while the Pocket has a larger footprint, it's not a big difference. If you can throw a Win 2 into your bag, chances are a Pocket 2 will fit too and not make the bag feel any heavier.

The Win 2 may be slightly more pocketable, but except for short periods I wouldn't pocket either of them except in cargo pants or jackets, and in those, either will fit.

The real difference between them is whether or not they are made to be used primarily on a tabletop (Pocket) or handheld (Win/Pyra), and arguably the Win line is not primarily made for productivity, so the keyboard is quite secondary.

Finally, I can't comment on the quality of the Pyra's keyboard since I have never handled one, but I haven't had any issue with Win 2's considering it's use case for me is mostly limited to the kind of things you'd use a on-screen keyboard for in a gaming console.

Id say that slurm is slightly more challenging to configure than kubernetes, but on the other hand there's pretty much one way to do it, and you're not searching among every other use case to find it.

It is however designed for secure networks where you have total control over the physical layer-2. If that gets compromised you can be in a world of hurt.

In a past life i configured and set up slurm in vpcs in amazon, was kind of a fun exercise.

Giuliani made absolutely sure that courts understood that he was NOT alleging fraud in the lawsuits he filed and took part in because he was afraid that he would be sanctioned or disbarred for such actions.

Powell and Wood relied on donations for their work and Wood in particular is a multi-millionaire many times over for some of the corporate work he's done. I'm sure Rudy is rich, mostly from the speech circuit post 9/11, but he's not Lin Wood rich. He probably needs to work to maintain his lifestyle.

There is another category of homelessness rarely brought up: Finland is having a tiny crisis over moldy buildings. There are apparently people aggregating in tent villages who are unable to enter almost any building. Like, hyper-allergic to mold.

Construction techniques changed after the '60s to make buildings more airtight, cheaper of course, and built quickly; Moisture was often sealed within structures (from rain or snow) because it costs money to wait for things to dry (especially in winter). This has resulted in catastrophic instances of entire brand-new apartment buildings collapsing in value. Then there's that one particular fungi that loves growing under those plastic carpets that were popular (cheap..). I've personally lived in multiple moldy buildings. Frequent eye and ear infections, strange irritability and headaches, etc. My whole neighborhood was just renovated because they found microbes, since these houses were built quick and cheap.

In my city there are not less than two public libraries where the architect thought it a good idea to put a water fountain inside the interior. One was shut off because it leaked water into the building; the other still runs to this day. Misty moisture among paper books. Yikes.

Recent cost-cutting measures of public schools shutting down their air circulation systems for the night have raised concerns over the air quality exposed on children. Teachers and nurses infamously suffer chronically from related issues since they spend most their time within these buildings.

And the worst part is perhaps that owners of buildings and apartments don't want air quality inspections because they'd have to pay for the damn repairs. People get stuck in moving spirals where they have to get quickly out of their moldy homes only to move into another one. I personally know one person whose business failed leaving her with $100k in debt because she got super ill and the doctors couldn't officially acknowledge that mold was the problem.
Possibly.

Those are just "SSA" subtitles. The difference mattered (ASS was an "Advanced SSA") once but now people just call it "ASS" as a joke. So Google is sort-of right, he could leave it out of the description.

I doubt this guy knows this since it's impossible he implemented SSA on his own due to how complex it is.

Did they migrate into Amazon RDS while doing this? For smaller projects I've stopped doing the self managed postgresql thing. The pricing is higher (75%?) for RDS for some use cases but can be worth it.

This is apparently purely down to the fact that people over 65 were recruited later than those under 65 in the phase 3 trials.

This means that once the trial had ended their wasn't enough infected versus uninfected in the over 65 groups to get a proper efficacy number. It may / probably will be a lot higher than 8%.

This feels like scaremongering.

Maybe there is a difference between active and passive retina stimulation in terms of ability to correct myopia? From the article it sounds like they are still determining if they can actually cure myopia and how long the effect lasts. Of course, at least in the US, how they are able to market them depends on what they get FDA approval for.
I don't see what any of that has to do with DoH. A device could just as easily use its own private dns service and bypass network filtering as well.

Increased secularization is also probably a factor. I presume going to your clergy for assistance was previously more common. I'm sure that kind of care had mixed effectiveness, but suspect it less available and norms are bit different for initiating that kind of conversation.

When people say or imply that the US engages in "war for oil", it's virtually always (in my observation) left ambiguous whether the claim is that the US pursues genuine national interest, or that the foreign policy is subverted by some unspecified special interest not aligned with the US as a whole, such as private oil companies.

What are you really saying when you say the US did "crazy shit" [for oil]?
So it is pretty identical to the n-word, in that it is a term for a minority that is rejected by the minority, and some members of the majority decide not to care, because they "do not mean it in a negative way". I am left to wonder how "please don't call me that" is not sufficient to end these discussions.

For non-Germans reading along, "Neger" used to be a common word, but is not anymore. Language is changing, society is changing, but as always, some will be left behind. If your grandpa says "neger" you gently correct him, if your peer says "neger", you are in bad company.

"Zigeuner" is less extreme, because awareness for the term is more recent. I was told in high school 15 years ago to avoid it, so everyone should have gotten the message by now. It shows a lack of education, mostly. Germans killed 200k+ Romani in the last century, so it not a wild claim that when our grandparents cautioned us about Zigeuner, that might have had something to do with racism.

(20 years ago I had friends who called Schokoküsse "Negerküsse", and my parents told me not to do that. I simply do not understand why people insist on calling them "Negerküsse", when they know it's hurtful to some. It's a shitty sweet targeted at children).
Thanks. I posted this here because a) Handelsblatt is kinda serious/reliable, b) I wanted an explanation.

> to store small files in RAM (for some well-chosen value of “small”, of course...

The Backblaze client code currently puts that dividing line at 100 MBytes. Any file less than 100 MBytes we call a "small file" and those don't get subdivided into 10 MByte chunks on disk, they get slurped up into RAM and just held there for the entire duration of being sent. For that code path, Backblaze can be configured to send up to 30 of these 100 MByte files in 30 separate threads which means (if the customer configures it this way) it can eat up 3 GBytes of RAM at peak. If you have that much RAM, it can really rip. If you don't, we recommend using fewer threads. :-)

The sub-division into 10 MByte chunks taking a one time "Snapshot" of the large file is for all files larger than 100 MBytes.
I made a (much less fancy) rowing machine program in 1984 (for the original Concept II).

It was written in 6502 assembly language for the Apple II.

It had a really nice display:

- 2 boats, with oars moving timed to your pulls
- scrolling scenery
- stroke power graphs
- odometers that rolled over like mechanical odometers.

I had a piece of tinfoil taped to the wheel on the concept II. There was an aluminum box divided in two with a flashlight bulb on one side and a photocell on the other. When the tinfoil passed under the alumium box the photocell resistance would change, which would be available to the program via a wirewrapped expansion board (that also gave the Apple II 60hz interrupts - a native Apple II has no timer or interrupt controller). I later saw a Cateye magnetic bicyle wheel sensor and felt like such an idiot.

It also had an integrated breakout game that was controlled by the difference in power between the two rowers. Because of how one wrote games in that day (often directly using screen memory as data), if the ball ever escaped the brickout playfield it would start colliding with (and corrupting) other things on the screen, and if it ever left the screen, with random bits of executable code.

When you got a high score on a 20 min row, I had an army surplus air raid siren that would spin up. The idea was that after you completely killed youself on the erg, you would then have to run like crazy to avoid getting deafened by an air raid siren in a small room (thankfully this last part never worked well). A very high school idea.
Antrim county was audited and no fraud was found. I don’t consider their expert to be particularly credible and their conclusions (with leaps of faith as to assumed motive) are not even borne out by the facts as they reported. An overly sensitive page size detection could produce the same discrepancies they claimed to find.

The ‘expert’ in the Antrim document also claimed over 100% of registered voters voted in various Michigan counties but was actually using Minnesota data. It was buffoonery of the absolute highest order and plainly visible. Why anyone would rely upon someone so incompetent for any other analysis is beyond me.

Oh, right, equally ludicrous is the misadministration by a Republican county clerk is cause for disenfranchising a vote by the opposing party.

For her part though, the county clerk called shenanigans:

‘Antrim County Clerk Sheryl Guy all pushed back on the report.

Guy, a Republican, said she was saddened by the efforts to discredit the equipment.

I did read the report and find that there are many misleading statements that are simply not accurate.”’
Quite interesting!

Time to go back to distributing direct apk files and setting up self-hosted stores to manage updates.

The Play Store was supposed to be only an interface for searching and installing packages, like aptitude or yum.

Then it started taking arbitrary decisions "for the benefit of the users" (of course, Google always knows what's best for its users, even more than the users themselves).

Then, like the guy who loves the smells of his own farts even when everybody around him disagrees, they decided that their process was indeed so good that it could have been completely automated, with almost no human touch and no possibility for developers and users to appeal.

And now it ended up being this Kafka novel where you're stuck in the gears of the process and you don't know why, nor when a real human will actually take a look at your case.

And, in the meantime, you lose traffic and users, but Google doesn't seem to care.

Time to start boycotting the Play Store. There's plenty of alternative stores, it's easy to set up one yourself for your apps, and you can always distribute your apk files through your website.

You'd have to get rid of a ton of modern features and somehow backfill / update all browsers to a set of constants

- audio waveform generation
- access to gpu/webgl info
- have to somehow dramatically change or remove ICE/webrtc
- standardize 'feature flags' e.g. somehow backfill old browser so they all show support for new JS objects
- access to only a small set of fonts
- somehow make rendering completely the same across browsers or remove measurement/rendering to like 5px increments or something. e.g. bounding rect of (747744.888some two character specific font or some svgcss transform etc)
- testing for a ton of css extensions
- supported mime types
- a bunch of SVG things (i dont think this has been explored much i have a hunch there are some good targets)
- a bunch of latency hacks
and more...

Correlation does not imply having something to do with another.

I think most people would be fine with having a certain set of parts that could be repaired. I'm not sure how many people need to have their T2 security chip replaced as opposed to say their microphone, display, rear camera, battery etc.

You could probably cover a big chunk of the most common repairs without having to crack open or tamper with Apple's proprietary software like the T2.

That alone would be a huge win for the right to repair movement.
Or use an actually free (as in freedom) app store.

>it didn't happen every time

True, but it didn't make much difference, since the reports from the thread showed it had a bizarrely short cache time.

>the server didn't keep any logs

Well, that's the rub isn't, it? Part of privacy-centric design is that you shouldn't have to risk such information being exposed or trust such reassurances; if they don't need the information, they shouldn't get it at all. There are privacy-respecting ways to do what they wanted to, which are also more efficient. For example, periodically update the machine's local revoked cert list, and check signatures against that (as several users recommended).
